**Chapter 253: The True Identity of the World Destroyer!**
"Momo Hundredfold Speed—"
[Swish!]
The next moment, the red meteor that Kozuki Oden had transformed into instantly swept past the position where Byrnndi World stood. But unfortunately, the latter had already shot up to a higher altitude like a black lightning bolt, moving even faster.
In the eyes of the spectators below, it looked like a red light and a black light passing each other. The entire process truly happened in the blink of an eye.
But the scene in the sky that followed made everyone, including Kozuki Oden, stop in their tracks.
Even Shimotsuki Ushimaru and King, who were currently fighting, instinctively looked up upon sensing the sudden giant shadow appearing on the ground. But the next second, their pupils shrank abruptly.
"What is that..."
At this moment, this sentence lingered in everyone's hearts. Slowly, the expressions on people's faces gradually changed towards fear. Some with less courage, like Kurozumi Orochi, were so scared they simply sat down on the ground.
Looking up at the High Altitude.
"Momo Hundredfold Transformation—"
Following Byrnndi World's loud roar upwards, his entire body began to swell like a balloon under the influence of his Devil Fruit Ability.
His initial height was around four meters, slightly taller than Kozuki Oden's 3.82 meters.
But now, under the stunned gaze of tens of thousands, he first grew to forty meters, then one hundred, two hundred, three hundred, finally reaching a terrifying four hundred meters!
What does a four-hundred-meter body size mean?
The height of an adult Giant is generally around twenty meters. Little Oars Jr.'s height is thirty-eight meters, Oars' height is sixty-seven meters, and even San Juan Wolf, who is still locked up in Impel Down, is only one hundred eighty meters.
Only Pica's Awakened form, the Stone Giant, in the Canon future, at 470 meters, is slightly taller than the current Hundredfold Transformation Byrnndi World.
But Pica's Stone Giant is absolutely no match for Byrnndi World before them, because the latter has not only Hardened his entire body with Armament Haki but also possesses Hundredfold Speed!
Even more exaggerated, this four-hundred-meter black giant was actually stomping on the Air with Moonwalk, flying above everyone's heads.
The Air Current from the Moonwalk was like thunder striking at close range, causing everyone's ears unbearable pain.
There was no longer a Battlefield to speak of.
Because no one could continue wielding their Blade and fighting in such a terrifying Environment!
"This..."
Kozuki Oden, still free-falling in Mid-air, was completely dumbfounded. He finally understood why Byrnndi World had received such high praise from Whitebeard and others.
Hundredfold Speed plus Hundredfold Transformation, plus the accumulation of Armament Haki Hardening over nearly half his life!
This allowed him to run rampant on The Seas even without Conqueror's Haki Infusion, capable of achieving a 'draw' against any Top Tier Combatant he faced!
Suddenly.
Byrnndi World moved.
[Boom—]
He was like he had stomped the entire Sky into pieces. Visible Hurricane Air Currents exploded behind him, but this was merely the background.
If his figure before could only be described as 'black lightning', now he was a 'black Meteorite' with the Speed of lightning.
"Run! Run away!!"
A Crewmate of the Beast Pirates screamed in terror and turned to run. His shout and action also startled everyone on the entire Battlefield awake.
Everyone could imagine what it would be like for something so large to fall down at such a high Speed!
"Hehehe, run?"
"This is God's divine punishment. Where can you run?"
But some more superstitious Samurai raised their heads with faces full of Despair and remained rooted to the spot. In their eyes, this black light pillar falling like a waterfall already declared the Doomsday for everyone present.
"This madman!!"
On the other side, Kaido also panicked upon seeing this scene. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead. After cursing angrily, he transformed into an Azure Dragon without a second thought, directly sweeping up King, who was stunned in Mid-air, and hurriedly flew towards higher and farther places.
As for Queen.
He was still inside that bowl-shaped Barrier. Kaido didn't believe Kurozumi Higurashi would dare to dispel the Barrier at this time, or open a gap to let him take people away.
As for forcibly breaking through the Barrier...
Sorry, he couldn't do it!
Whether Queen could survive depended on how incredible Kurozumi Semimaru's Barrier-Barrier Fruit Ability was...
"Stop him, he must be stopped! He can't be allowed to fall to the Ground like this!"
Kozuki Oden, who had just landed back on the Ground, was filled with shock and anger. Although Kozuki Toki was lucky enough to be included within the Barrier because she was with Kurozumi Orochi.
But on this Battlefield, there were not only Kin'emon, Denjiro, Kanjuro, and other Vassals who were willing to believe in him, but also over ten thousand Samurai who had come to subjugate Kaido and Kurozumi Orochi.
[Bang!]
Kozuki Oden couldn't use Moonwalk, so he could only stomp the Ground beneath him into pieces again, using the powerful recoil to shoot up into the Sky, directly facing the 'black Meteorite' that was already closing in.
He gathered most of his Armament Haki onto Ame no Habakiri and Enma in his hands, and simultaneously Coated them with all of his Conqueror's Haki.
As a result, the two pitch-black Blades flickered with dense, dark red Lightning.
This wasn't the end.
"Ahhhhhh, stop for me!"
"Oden Two Sword Style: Togen Totsuka!!"
This was the move that had previously heavily injured Kaido, and it was also Kozuki Oden's strongest sword technique at this moment.
But now, due to his intense Will to protect everyone present, the Power unleashed was several times stronger than before.
Haki is originally the Strength from the Heart, and the Strength of the Heart is the easiest Strength to burst forth!
Actually.
Everything happened in an instant.
Far brighter than before, even describable as dazzling, the red meteor streaked across in a straight Beam under everyone's expectant Gaze, colliding head-on with the massive black Meteorite!
[Rumble rumble rumble...]
A true clash of titans, an indescribable super Air Explosion, swept across in all directions like a tidal wave of white mist-like Air Current at High Altitude.
The moment these Air Currents reached the Ground, Pirates, Samurai, even terrified Warhorses and shattered Rock Blocks were pushed away by the strong Impact.
And this was merely the aftershock!
"Lord Oden..."
Kozuki Toki, tied to a Wooden Pole inside the Barrier, wasn't affected much, but when she saw the 'red meteor' only holding its ground for a moment before being forcefully suppressed by the 'black Meteorite' on the Screen Feed, her beautiful eyes were filled with Despair and Fear.
[Bang!!!!]
Four hundred meters tall, Byrnndi World, completely black, finally landed. But the Ground of Kuri seemed unable to withstand his Force.
In an instant, after a short cracking sound like a wail, the Ground within several hundred meters on both sides suddenly cracked open and even rose up, seemingly trying to sandwich him in the middle.
But Byrnndi World just impatiently waved a hand and swatted it, completely shattering it!
"Where's that brat... Oh, there he is."
His red Gaze, full of Killing Intent, swept around, and he found Kozuki Oden's location through Observation Haki.
"Cough—"
Kozuki Oden's Situation wasn't good at all at this moment. He was spitting up large mouthfuls of Blood not far away.
Actually.
If Byrnndi World had just used ordinary punches and kicks, it wouldn't have been possible to heavily injure him with a single blow. But the key was that the former had dived down from a High Altitude at Hundredfold Speed. The potential energy and momentum generated were extraordinary.
And he insisted on taking it head-on!
But fortunately, his 'Oden Two Sword Style: Togen Totsuka' had offset most of the Strength, so that everyone who should have been completely wiped out only suffered heavy casualties...
[Boom!]
Suddenly, Byrnndi World moved again. It seemed as if he had an inexhaustible supply of anger to Vent within him, giving Kozuki Oden no time to rest.
The four-hundred-meter-tall super Giant rushed forward at an extremely exaggerated Speed. The black giant fists, larger than two Buildings, swung down continuously towards the Area where Kozuki Oden was.
[Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!]
No one knew how long Kozuki Oden, unable to escape the Combat, could last under such frantic high-Speed bombardment...
"Die for me—"
Byrnndi World's incredibly violent roar, accompanied by the continuous rumbling and the cracking Ground, echoed throughout the entire azure Sky of Wano Country. Six years later, he once again demonstrated what World Destroyer truly meant.
Only that Floating Warship still overlooked everything from High Altitude...
Author's Note: This chapter's Content, someone actually doesn't Understand????
Author's Note: "...And he seems to not have Conqueror's Haki Coating Technique?"
Author's Note: Shimotsuki Ushimaru truly doubted if Whitebeard and Roger were joking with him back then.
Author's Note: Yes.
Author's Note: Byrnndi World does not have Conqueror's Haki, and naturally doesn't have the Conqueror's Haki Coating Technique.
Author's Note: Then what did he rely on back then to be regarded as a man to be 'Feared' by the World Government and Marine Headquarters alongside Law, Whitebeard, and Shiki, and even given the Epithet 'World Destroyer'?
Author's Note: This is Oden's psychological state!
Author's Note: What I'm writing is that Byrnndi World's Hundredfold Speed + Hundredfold Transformation + even more profound Armament Haki accumulation allows him to temporarily contend with Law, Whitebeard, Shiki, and others, even without Conqueror's Coating and Armament Internal Destruction.
Author's Note: How can you not Understand? Do you think Byrnndi World can't beat people who have Armament Internal Destruction and Conqueror's Coating just because he doesn't have them?
Author's Note: It's really hard to Understand. Such clear Content, and you still can't Understand???
